"A tour guide down Memory Lane of 1930's style american folk, a collection of clever songs filled with witty play on words about Moonshiners, criminals, loners and even more shadowy figures emerge and head on up to the barn dance. Played on banjo, kazoo, guitar, musical saw, and a collection of spittoons, frying pans and medicine bottles. The music is a mix of old-timey, ragtime, sea shanty, Victorian parlor and jug band. Recorded on wax cylinders and other lo-fi devices, these songs were meant to be written between 1900 and 1930; he just never got around to it then." (label info)
